Posted by William | July 14, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Trusts

Run from this "attorney" as fast as you can

I have worked with numerous attorneys having been thru a divorce and owning a few businesses. I have never dealt with a more incompetent person in my life. I hired him for a Trust matter and his only focus was to file meaningless fillings to increase his billing. He asked for $15,K to file a defama...tion claim against my brother and when I told him the evidence had gone past the statute of limitations. I asked for the retainer back and he agreed. Then never sent it back. I filed a complaint with the State Attorney Regulations Board who did little. When I finally agreed to a much smaller settlement he sent me a check that was all torn up and written in a sharpie which bled thru the check making it undepositable...on purpose. He also put a go to jail card attached to the check. There is seriously something wrong with this guy an in now way should you use him to fight even a parking ticket. Worst attorney I have ever dealt with.

Litigation lawyer | Feb 02

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Tim is an excellent litigator on a wide range of practice areas, as well as a very talented and intelligent appellate practitioner and legal writer. I worked with him several years ago on a number of cases and he truly cares about his clients and their well-being, and is tenacious in pursuing their interests. I would recommend him highly for employment law matters, criminal defense, commercial and construction litigation, as well Federal litigation and the various other practice areas in which he has expertise. He has particular experience in representing both individuals and business entities."

Experience

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2001.

Censure issued in AZ, 2001

updated on 09/26/2016

Censure means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State censures the lawyer in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.

Timothy’s comment:

“This was a reprimand dating back to 1997 when I missed court appearances while being admitted to the hospital. The court hearings were rescheduled without prejudice to the clients in question.”
